I tried to see if I could spin the rotor by hand, but couldn't. I cranked the engine, but the rotor doesn't move whatsoever. Is it the timing belt? Does anyone have documentation on the procedure to change a timing belt? Could it maybe be a gear/sprocket in the timing belt assy? All help appreciated. Jeff
